The symptoms of biliousness are unhap-

Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids OF

inspection at any time; if it is not white

The digestive system is wholly out OF

Municipal suffrage has just been granted
by parliament to the women h~ouseholders
of Belfast. Women ~householders have
had municipal suffrage in England for
eighteen years, and in Scotland for four
years; but this is the first step that has
been taken toward extending the same
right to the women of Ireland. There are
about 5000 women householders in BEL
fast who will be entitled to vote under
the new law.--Home journal.

Improving the kennebec.

In the last Congress, Congressman Mil
liken endeavored to secure the passage of
a measure providing for the improvement
of the kennebec river from Augusta to
Bath. but the President gave his bill a
"pocket Veto" and nothing was accom-
plished. At the coming session Mr.. Mill
ken will press his bill for passage. He
has been at Gardiner, in consultation with
prominent vessel owners and gentlemen
interested in navigation on the Kennebec
in regard to the matter. There is more
shipping on the tKennebec than on any
other east of the Hudson, and during the
past season there has been an unusual
amount of tonnage in its waters. Yet
portions of it are hardly suitable for nav
igation. Between Augusta and Halo
well there are points, where at low wa
ter, vessel drawing six feet cannot pass.
At Hallowell there are sunken piles in the
channel, on one of which vessel was
sunk last summer, and below Richmond
navigation is difficult of reason of mud
flats and shoal water, the Boston boat be-
ing often grounded there. No money has
been Expended on the river bottom for
many years, and the people of the Ken
nebec valley feel that the national govern
ment should do something to make the
stream navigable. Congress will no doubt
make an appropriation, and the improve
ments be secured unless the President
concludes to blast the hopes of the Ken
nebecers with another one of his "pocket
vetoes."

Mr.. Hart read law in the office of Hon

mitted to the Piscataquis Bar several
years ago, locating at Monson, which has
since been his residence. He succeeded
j. F. Sprague. Esq, as editor of the

in that capacity. He has always had an
active interest in educational matters,
having been Secretary of the Pascataquis

Maine Good TempIars.

The Grand Council of the Maine Grand
Lodge of Good Templars met in special
session at Waterville, Friday. The coun-
Gil is composed of the following mem
bers: Hon Marcellus J. Dow, of Brooks,
Grand Chief Templar; Maj. James H..
Hamilton, Mattawamkeag, Grand Coun-
cilor; Mrs. Emma f. Knight, of Portland,
Grand Vice Templar; Hon. Geo. +. Brack-
EFT, of Belfast, Grand Secretary, and
Everett b. Norton of Pennington, Grand
Treasurer. By invitation, all the depu-
ties of the Grand Chief Templar, wheth-
er state, special, district or subordinate,
and all the district officials in Maine were
requested to be present.
The meeting of the Grand Council with
these officials was held at the pretty and
convenient Good Templars Hall, of which
Waterville lodge is justly so proud. The
changed, new, unwritten subordinate Sc
eret work of the order was exemplytled
to these officials, as was also the new dis
trict degree to all those entitled to receive
it. This constituted the business of the
session at the hall, although the Council
met in secret session at the Elmwood
hotel during the day, in close consultation
in regard to the interest of the order.

Water Supply.

The matter of water supply for this
town we must probably put by for time
as there are things which we need even
more, which will require all our energies
and liberality, but we may as well keep
the matter in view, as we shall come to it
in time. One point in connection with it
we may do well to remember, is this,
that towns when they have water works
have decreased their fire premiums to an
extent larger than all the outlay which
the town has voted for hydrants. For in
stance, town by voting twenty-five hum
dred dollars year to company for u
stated number of hydrants increases the
tax on citizens to that extent but the cit
liens in turn get reduction in fire prem
iums from the insurance companies of
more than that amount thus in reality
getting the hydrants for less than moth
ing, with all their Advantages Iht$feid

Carlisle and Randall.

Speaker Carlisle has received letter
from Mr. Randall, enclosing extracts
from Eastern ard Western newspapers
purporting to represent his views on the
Theobe contest and indicating that he Is
taking personal interest in that move
ment to deprive the member from Ken
lucky of his seat. Mr.. Randall disclaims
having expressed any opinion on the sub
ject and says that he is not aware that
that there is anything in the contest of
Mr.. Theobe. Mr.. Carlisle has written Il
reply, thanking Mr.. Randall for his let
Ter and assuring him that he placed no
confidence whatever in these fabrications
Mr.. Carlisle said that he fully under
stood Mr.. Randall's position that what
ever might be their difference on econo-
mic questions, he knew that he would not
be party to any such underhand
schemes to reach such an end which was
fairly Il matter of parliamentary consid-
Grafton and legislative action. Whatever
may be done in the Theobe case will
therefore be done without Mr.. Randall's
cooperaton or consent

The End of q EIend-

Jesse Pomeroy, the most fendish being that
has been in prison in Massachusetts, for years
was under sentence for life for numbering and
cutting up two or three children when he was
but twelve or fourteen years of age. He was
tried and sentenced to death but through the eff
forts of sentmentalists his sentence was COM
muted to Imprisonment for life He showed
wonderful brain power in learning languages
but never gave up the idea of escaping from
prison. He has several times been on the eve
of escaping by ingenious devices. He made an
other attempt to escape last week. Digging q
hole in the stone wall and cutting into gas
pipe, he let the gas into cavity of the wall by
means of paper tube. When a large quantity
had been accumulated the young hend ignitcd
that iniamable stuff. An explosion followed
which caused considerable damage to the wall
and he himself was rendered insensible, and has
snce died from the effect of the gas. While in
prison he had become a man.

An Unlntended Illustration.

An amusing incident happened n
Liverpool church the other Sunday The
pews of the church had been vanished
the week previous and were not yet en-
tirely dry. The congregation did not
know this. The clergyman came out of
the vestry-room and began the service by
reading the sentence; "Rend your hearts
and not your garments, etc." the people
rising as he began. But to the horror of
everyone they found themselves stuck
fast to the seats; and though they had
just been told not 70 do so. many of
them literally rent their garments in
their efforts to get up.

A sectional question of a somewhat novel
kind is raised by the Hon. John A. kasson, Of
Iowa, in an essay on "'The Western View Of the
Tariff" He maintains that Western commune
ties, especially the Western farmers, have the
soundest economic reasons of their own, apart
from the reasons Of Eastern communities, for
favoring the protective principle, and that this
principle has a stronghold in the Wertern mind,
against which Eastern interests doctrines
cannot prevail. The essay appears as contri-
button to the December number or the Forum.

HARrER's MAGAZINE for Christmas abounds
in good poetry, most of it beautifully illustrated
by well-kuown artists. Edwin A. Abbey fur
nishes ten pictures for "The Vicar, by Praed,
and Gilbert Gaul has done some excellent work
for "The Convcts Christmas Evc," by Will
Carleton. One would have guessed it was Carl
eton's pen that wrote these verses even if his
name were not given. Then Andrew Lang tells
of "Another Way" which is not Matthew Ar
nold's, and William Black translates bit Of
Heine's love-sweetness. And what is really a
Christmas Carol is sung by Harriet Lewis Brad
ley, of "St. Anthony OF Padua."
